Its only in Nigeria that we are blinded by ethnicity. This man has bring the highest disrepute to the post of a president in Nigeria. I weep for my country.

Supporting Buhari is not for APC but for his candidacy, and his intolerance for corruption. Winning corruption in Nigeria, is like solving 95% of Nigeria's problem.
Am really touched and dissapointed when people still want this man JONAH for a president. Posterity will judge us all.

Like I said we can all cut the cost and save this money for Nigerians by sending them parking by next election. Though there are no better alternatives yet.

Too much but since it is captured on the budget its not illegal. That is why I keep on saying that whoever is the president is not the problem of Nigeria but the constitution he presides with.

Until the constitution is changed to favour the citizens irrespective of class nothing will ever change in Nigeria.

Meanwhile in APC states where prudent management is the watch word, their governors spend ....wait for it....a whopping #50million on bed and mattress. Their food bill would give an unemployed graduate heart attack.

Well, he said he will not stay beyond 2015.
